Dublin twins up for award

Jedward will go head-to-head at an awards ceremony with 'X Factor' judges Simon Cowell and Louis Walsh.

The Dublin twins, ejected from the TV talent show last month, were nominated for Funniest Double Act at the Loaded Laftas.

Walsh, who mentored 18-year-olds John and Edward Grimes before they were booted off the show, is also up for the title alongside rival judge Cowell.

Other double acts include comedy duo Alexander Armstrong and Ben Miller, plus Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer.

The awards, which like the shortlist are voted for by the public, take place in London on January 27.
